For Commercial Food Buyers

Business interest in sustainability is increasing and consumer interest in food issues is at an all-time high. 

Customers are concerned about quality, health, the authenticity of products, and about their connection to the people and the land that provide our food. They want to know how you define sustainable agriculture and what you are doing to bring them better, more socially and environmentally responsible food.

Food Alliance can help. Whether you are a broker, packer, processor, distributor, retailer, restaurateur, or food service operator, when you ask for Food Alliance Certified products, you signal to suppliers that you support standards for social and environmental responsibility.

Food Alliance connects you with suppliers who are using sustainable practices, can meet your needs and satisfy your customers' expectations.

And suppliers are listening! Your purchases of Food Alliance Certified products create an incentive for suppliers to improve farming and food handling practices to meet the evolving needs of your customers.

Learn more about sourcing Food Alliance Certified products , how Food Alliance can help you educate your customers about sustainability, and how you can be recognized as a company that supports Food Alliance's vision for sustainable agriculture and a more sustainable food system.

How our farmers are making a difference

“We are reducing our inputs by moving toward a site-specific approach to both fertilization and pest control using Global Positioning System technology.  Our current goal is to have all of our farm ground mapped by the end of the year.” - RW Farms
